Be a master through ancient times
Chapter 463 Old Friends
No one knew about Steward Xu's full of thoughts, but Kou Jing and Chu Ci were almost together in the remaining two days.Soon, the entire Tixue Department knew about it, and Master Chu's close friends came to see him.
When someone found out that Chu Ci's best friend was about to take over as General Zuo of the Navy, they became even more enthusiastic about Chu Ci.Chu Ci had no idea what they were thinking, and all his thoughts were devoted to Kou Jing's parting words.
Kou Jing said that Mrs. Wen came to Southern Fujian Province with a few young nobles.They separated as soon as they got there, and Mrs. Wen might come to him to make him mentally prepared.
Chu Ci was dumbfounded for a moment, and even wanted to pick out his ears.Did he hear correctly?Mrs. Wen is here?How many little nobles are you bringing with you?Who can be called noble?That's not for princes and grandchildren!
"You are not kind, you just thought of telling me now!" Chu Ci wide noodles looked at Kou Jing in tears, couldn't he tell him such important news earlier?
It was rare for Kou Jing to feel a little guilty. He had been so happy these days that he forgot about it, so that when he was about to leave, he remembered to remind Chu Ci.
After Kou Jing left, Chu Ci kept thinking about this matter, why would Mrs. Wen bring some princes here?Although he had brought the third prince on a study tour before, everyone knew that among the many princes, the third prince was the one who was the least favored, and it was understandable that the emperor would agree to him taking him out.
But the other princes are different, they are not only favored, but the mother clan also has powerful ministers, how can they be brought out so easily?Unless they have a reason to come out.
Then what reason would make them abandon the safe palace and come here secretly?The answer is obvious, that is, the current palace may not be very safe either.
Reminiscent of Master Mu being assassinated all the way, and even daring to strike near the city gate, it can be seen that the people behind this are extremely rampant.Thinking of Lin Futong's sudden death and Tianhedi's unreasonable behavior recently, it is certain that the capital city is about to change!
"Lord Chu?" Zhou Qing knocked on the door a few times but there was no response from Chu Ci, so he called outside.When Chu Ci came back to his senses, he found that the brush in his hand had fallen on the paper while he was meditating, and he had drawn a dark ink mark.
"Come in." He picked up the piece of paper, crumpled it up and threw it into the wastebasket, then said.
"My lord, the ranking of this mock exam has been calculated, and the subordinate officials have ordered someone to transcribe it on the red paper, and I will wait for you to go over and announce it, my lord." Zhou Qing and the others came after waiting for Chu Ci to come. Call him.
"Let's go then."
The two of them went out with the yamen servant holding red paper in their hands. The outside was already surrounded by students. Seeing Chu Ci come out, everyone calmed down and said hello to Chu Ci respectfully.
Chu Ci encouraged them as usual, and then told them the rewards they could get for being in the top [-].This year, Tixue Division has just started the frosting business, and it is not short of money at all, so the rewards are much richer than last year.
The students present cheered, everyone was eager to be on the top [-] list, and then they would be able to show off and get a large reward, it would kill two birds with one stone.
After the list was posted, some were happy and some were sad.Although this is just a mock test, it is enough to see his own level from the position of the ranking.In particular, here are only students from Zhangzhou Prefecture.After taking the exam, it is estimated that a group of people will give up their studies, but more people should be those who work harder.
On one side, rewards were being distributed bustlingly. On the other side, an old man and a few children stood in front of a grave and sighed slowly.
"Things are different and people are different. A few years ago, we were still sitting together to discuss knowledge, but now you have been buried in the ground. Although you are a bit stubborn in reading, your loss is also your loss." This stubbornness is on the rise. If you were willing to make false claims with them at that time, you may still be alive and well now. However, if you were willing to do this, then it would not be you."
The old man picked up the jug and poured two glasses of wine.He spilled one of the cups on the ground while he lifted the other and drank it down.
"This is the peach blossom wine from the capital that I promised to bring to you. How would you like to taste it? If you want me to say that you are really unlucky, when I invited you to drink in the capital, you refused..."
The old man babbled towards the grave, and several younger ones stood in a row, without any trace of impatience on their faces.The Taifu told them that the person buried here was a very learned and loyal man who died heroically because he refused to submit to the Japanese, and he was worthy of their respect.
After commemorating this friend, Wen Bing took a few people into the carriage.The sixth prince Yu Qiu asked: "Teacher, where are we going now?"
"Go find someone. I don't know if the sixth prince still remembers that Chu Siye from the Imperial College?" Wen Bing asked. He had heard about Chuci coaxing the sixth prince.
"Chu Siye?" Yu Qiu said silently in his heart, and a gentle and handsome figure suddenly appeared in his memory. With a sly smile, the man hugged him with those not-so-strong hands, and put it in his mouth Stuffed in a sweet ball.
"It seems that the sixth prince has already thought of him. He is now serving as the education officer in Fucheng. By the way, the education officer is the official who manages the academic affairs of a party. They are responsible for educating the local academic style, supervising the students' studies, and cultivating students for the court. More talents..." Taifu Wen explained to them the responsibilities of being a student in detail, not because of their smallness and vague explanation, and several young ones also listened very seriously. I have to say that the royal family Children are much more mature than ordinary people's children.
Along the way, Wen Bing was explaining to them some of the composition of the Tixue Division until the carriage stopped in front of the Tixue Division.
Seeing that no one got out of the carriage, the concierge of the Tixue Division went up to ask them why they came.He didn't neglect because the carriage looked very simple, and his attitude was very polite.
"Brother, please go and report to your master Tixue that an old friend is visiting." Wen Bing opened the curtain and said with a smile.
When the porter heard this, he immediately became more polite.This person is an old friend of their master Tixue, so can he be an ordinary person?Immediately, he rushed inside, anxious to tell Chu Ci the news.
Chu Ci dropped the pen in his hand again in shock. For some reason, although the people who came did not reveal where they came from, Chu Ci just felt that the people who came must be Mrs. Wen and the others.
He went out to greet him personally, and when he came to the carriage, he saw Wen Bing's face behind the curtain.Mrs. Wen smiled like an old fox, and when she saw Chu Ci, she joked: "It seems that Chu Tixue was not surprised by the old man's arrival, but your foster brother told you?"
Chu Ci chuckled a few times, and pulled out a smiling face: "How could he tell the lower official about such a top-secret matter? In fact, the lower official was not unsurprised, but his face was stiff because of his shock, and he couldn't react for a while. That's all."
Mrs. Wen smiled and said nothing to his answer, as if I know you are lying but I will not expose you.And Chu Ci had a stubborn expression on his face, anyway, Kou Jingjing would not betray him.
Chu Ci climbed into the carriage and asked the coachman to drive the carriage directly towards Houya.Even though they are dressed plainly, their looks are still too eye-catching. If they fall into the eyes of someone with a heart, it might be bad, so it's better not to get out of the car.
The carriage drove all the way to the courtyard of Chu Ci's house before stopping.He helped Wen Bing out of the carriage, and helped the little nobles inside out one by one.Seeing the old and young in this car, Chu Ci sighed again, with such a combination, how dare they go around in an open manner?
Wen Bing had already begun to observe his yard at this time, and finally sighed: "Chu Tixue is having a good life, and it looks a little more comfortable than when he was in the capital."
"Thanks to your lord, the folk customs in Zhangzhou Prefecture are simple and honest, and the students are motivated to make progress. The lower officials have nothing to worry about, so naturally they are more relaxed." Chu Ci replied casually.
After hearing this, Wen Bing smiled again, thinking that the young man was quite angry, and he seemed to be complaining to him from the tone.
When someone found out that Chu Ci's best friend was about to take over as General Zuo of the Navy, they became even more enthusiastic about Chu Ci.Chu Ci had no idea what they were thinking, and all his thoughts were devoted to Kou Jing's parting words.
